RE: OPCUA SSL problem

[Majer Karel via Tech-talk <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Hi Ralph,

 

I have some fairly good news. I built the IOC with the binary distribution and it connects to the server. I cannot read data though, because the IOC ignores security setup and the server is configured in a way that it requires encryption. But I hope that using the full UA SDK will work.

 

So it seems that the problem is some incompatibility of open62541 client and the server used. I have dumped also working communication of open62541 and B&R OPCUA server and noticed differences in OpenSecureChannelResponse of the two servers. The problematic server does not send Nonce field in the response, but I don’t understand the OPCUA protocol well enough to be able to tell how much of a problem it its.

 

Best regards,

 

Karel

I built the device support with UASdk, but the IOC crashes on startup with Segmentation fault:

That fits exactly the other reports I have received. "Compiles but crashes."

 

 I could download only evaluation version 1.8.4 of UASdk and noticed that the device support should work up to version 1.7. Is there anything I can try to get this running?

 

Try the UASDK-based binary distribution tar from GitHub that matches your version of Base (exact match required) and distribution.

 

Good luck!
